govern romney said you never called what happened in benghazi a terrorist attack and you said check the transcripts and crandy crowley said you did and there was confusion in the administration over what happened. why? what was it that caused that confusion? >> well, we weren't confused about the fact that four americans had been killed i wasn't confused about the fact we needed to ramp up diplomatic security around the world after that happened. i wasn't confused about investigating exactly what happened so it gets fixed or confused about hunting down whoever did it and bring them to justice so as i said during the debate, nobody's more interested in figuring this out than i am. when a tragic event like this happens on the other side of the world immediately a whole bunch of intelligence starts coming in, people try to piece together exactly what happened. and what i always tried do is make sure we just get all the facts, figure out what went wrong and make sure it doesn't happen again and we're still in that process now but every piece of information we get as we got it we laid it out
